This artwork is called a relief. It is similar to how a sculpture might be made but hangs on a wall, and it is by the Dutch artist Karel Appel. He made this relief by re-using pieces of wood that he had found and nailing them to an old window shutter. The figures in the relief have been roughly painted using strong, bright colours. Karel has made each figure in the relief different so that each one has their own personality. Can you describe some of the characters from the relief in a story? Who are they? Do they look happy or sad? Can you describe where they are – in a noisy or quiet place? Imagine what they might be saying to one another if they could talk.
